here are some of the books taht might prove helpful....

VOCAB:
1.norman lewis
2.IMS material wordlist- BRM
3.barron's wordlists.

For RC try reading as many novels as you can and make note of the tough words in them.In fact books by DAN brown has many words that come in BARRONS........try improving the reading speed to about 350 wpm......

QUANTS:
1.arun sharma
2.Trishna's book by TIME

DI:
1.arun sharma has a book for DI as well with lots of exercises.....

GK:
1.try reading the newspapaers. i know thats not easy ....
2.TIME AND IMS have their respective magazines with about 100 GK questions each ,onth
GK proves helpful only for exams like IIFT,SNAP and MAT .......but GK is a scoring area where one can boost speed too...

ok all the best
try doing the material of TIME and IMS... i might join u guys in the prep if i dont convert....
i have shared what i knew....

we can start a thread for shortcuts too. i have a list of 60-70 shortcuts .. i can post them if needed
karthik

I need the following info from you:
1. Whats the name of the Quants book by Arun Sharma ?
2. Whats the name of the DI book by Arun Sharma ?

I am planning to buy Shakuntala Devi's "Puzzles to Puzzle You" for LR, "Verbal and Non-verbal Reasoning" by R S Agarwal also.

Do you think i should go for "How to Prepare for CAT" by TMH also ?

let me know
regards.

thx buddy!!

Can any1 tell me how is 'Preparation 4 mba' by R S Agarwal . All are suggesting books but no one has given the titles for books

[sriks8]

I believe abhijit guha is extremely good for formulae and concepts while arun sharma is good for weird problems with no solutions!!!

for english, my serious suggestion would be to prepare very little on words and read hell a lot of novels.

I think TIME mockcat DI material is pretty good and the best. Nothing else better for DI prep.

thanks
